I don't think it requires any if properly torqued...

New factory hub mounting bolts seem to have red threadlocker RMS Product Details: 11570580 - Hub Bolt but I've also seen videos where blue threadlocker is used. This will be my first hub replacement.

none, just make them tight and they wont ever come loose.

Don't use any if you want to get them off ever again. Being a W body..you'll need to get them off again...

[never use red unless it is for permanent install, you need heat to remove it if using red threadlocker

Red is pretty much permanent. Torque it right and forget it. You WILL be replacing your hubs again, anyway, might as well not make it impossible on your self.
